Pilates Manager at Yogaworks Woodland Hills What originally motivated you to try Pilates?
I came to Pilates because I was very ill and could barely walk. I was a dancer and very strong, but I gained 50lbs and was not allowed to let my heart rate go up. I had a friend who owned a yoga studio and took a Mat Pilates certification. She told me I could come to her class for free. I was blown away by the method. The last thing you bought and loved?
